It's not actually that hard to design a sympathetic loft conversion that almost looks like it's part of the original design but 20-35k paid to a bunch of half ar$ed cowboys doesn't lend itself to aesthetic wants.

the-e-dealer Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 The Garage was there in the nineties too. I used fill up there. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/29313-worst-building-in-ed/page/3/#findComment-618696 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo1964 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Yes... Citroen dealer. I can see it in my mind like a yellowing Hipstamatic print. I remember getting my Esso 'Man in Flight coins' when my old man filled up the Austin with 2 Star.There was a really hideous care home down there too. I used to think one of the worst buildings was the new flats up Underhill overlooking the cemetery.. But now they're lived in and have plants and look loved I rather like them. My ugliest vote goes to the sad looking conversion of the old Heber Arms... Mainly because closed pubs make me a bit sad.

Otta Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 The flats on the corner of Underhill & Overhill are not so much ugly or anything, as just... wrong it that surrounding.

jimbo1964 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 The white ones which were vacant for ages .. yes very open to public scrutiny. They look nice now they're lived in.
